Hi Louise - I lost my Maggie three years ago last Monday but I still hope and pray that one day I will have her back, please don't give up on Tiggs, she's chipped after all. Dogs are found all the time, scanned and returned to their owners, some after months if not years of being missing, one day that could be you. Heartfelt hugs from me, I know what you are going through.

2010-11-17 18:28 Louise625

I'm still looking for you Tiggs even tho its hopeless, but just in case. x x x

Thank you so much for posting but it isn't Tiger although she would be so white in the face now and probably very similar.

Thank you so much for your help, I know it is a long shot after all this time but you never know, miracles do happen. She will be an old lady now so that is against her too but I still live in hope. xxx

I am sure none of us have forgotten dear Tiger. I think of her every single time I drive along the A40. Would love to hear that someone has been looking after her somewhere and with the better weather coming and lighter nights she will be seen. There are so many people who know about her now! I admire you so much for continuing your search. To those of us who truly love animals a lost one just never goes out of your mind. I so hope that 2009 brings some good news for you and we can all celebrate her homecoming!

Louise625, it was so lovely to hear from you again, and thank you so much for sending these beautiful new pics of beautiful Tiger to admin. I had a job choosing which one for the poster, but opted for the head shot because of the ears. I know she has these very distinctive ears, and I think they cannot be mistaken in this pic. Have had a conversation with Jayne, tonight ( Fri) and we will bump her up to the top again and put her forward for Countryman's Weekly. Good Luck Louise - you just never know x BUMP!

I have just had a PM via a greyhound forum from someone who has been out and about talking to people and checking areas from Sennybridge to Llandeilo to Llanwrtyd Wells, so Tiger is not forgotten and if she does surface the locals will know who she is.

Thank you for your kind words. I have told myself that the worst has happened as then if I get any news it can only be good. If Tiggs is still alive now it would be a miracle unless someone has her and is looking after her.

Benflash and neighbour - if any sign of this dog again please leave food and do not attempt to catch. Might be an idea to leave a bit of food anyway in case she comes back. If this is Tiger who has come down from the mountain after so long to do bin raiding, there is no shortage of game up there so it would indicate some reason for her having difficulty in catching it. If she doesn't appear to be lame, there could be a chance of a mouth/teeth problem. May I suggest to leave some soft food e.g. soaked kibble?

Had a call from a neighbour of Benflash this morning - she had seen a dog of Tiger's description in a nearby yard but when tried to catch her couldn't get near her - said she had seen the same dog some 6 weeks previous. Benflash went straight out searching but nowhere to be seen. This could be Tiger or it could be a local dog in Llandovery.

Thanks - I did spend Sunday driving around the Upper Chapel area and walking Lily around but no-one had seen anything - it was a last minute thing as I was supposed to be helping out at a local show which was cancelled so thought I would just drive up there for the day - bit of a lost cause really but made me feel better as not been up there for a while. Lily loved the place and had a great time. It seems such a long time ago now that the last sighting was reported and we are now over 4 months down the line - I do wander if she is still out there now.

benflash, a red and white collie was picked up at llandovery yesterday and is now back with his people, so that might be the one you were called out for. Louise, I know it is hard but I believe your girl is still out there. The Upper Chapel sighting was just over 2 months after Tiger went missing, and she looked in fair shape then. If a dog can survive in the countryside for 2 months it can go on indefinitely, and as long as she can catch a rabbit or find roadkill she will cope. The problem is that we need her home by winter as it gets bleak around there, the advantage is that in late autumn there will be less cover and also she may be more likely to come down to more sheltered and inhabited places and get seen.

I have had a couple of calls since the Llandovery sighting, but I am afraid they have been false alarms. I was told one was a lurcher with stripes, turned out to be a ginger and white collie! I am still looking though.

2007-08-13 14:54 Louise625

No, I'm afraid not - I have heard nothing since the last call at Llandovery. My hopes are fading that she is still out there, although I know that as bracken and ground cover will be high now she would be well hidden wherever she is. I just have no idea of where to start looking.

This sounds very good news to me. Thank you for the update Benflash. If this is her, maybe she has gone more grey in colour, and it's not surprising, but sounds like this bitch is in pretty good shape. I do so hope it's Tiger, and I'm glad you are so near to keep more of a look out. Fingers, and everything else crossed x

Louise, We have spoken to the man who saw the dog like Tiger on the bridge, which is only about 1/4 of a mile from our house. As you said , He called out her name and the dog ran towards him. She then turned, had a pee then ran off in to Castle Garage's yard. When asked "how did the dog have a pee ", He said it squated, not cocked its leg. So, I would say it is likely to be a bitch. We have had a good walk about and given out some small cards. We had a chat with the lady who lives on the spot, overlooking the bridge and the yard. She has seen a dog at the area about a week ago, but thinks it was a lighter colour than Tiggs , but was not sure. If you remember. some kidds rang you quite a few weeks ago to say the had seen Tiggs at virtually the same spot. We also called to see a lady who takes in all the local strays. She has not seen or heard anything , but she knows where We are if she does. The police take all the stray dogs in the area to her. We will continue to keep our eyes and ears open, and will not give up on her!

Had a call on Saturday afternoon to say that a guy had seen Tiggs and had got quite close but couldn't catch her - in Llandovery - this could be the same dog as he couldn't say if it was male or female but thought it was her. Typically we were not home and he left message on answerphone not my mobile so didn't get the message til Monday morning. He said the dog was not in a very good way and he did call Tiggs and it came running over then shot off in direction of the car park where the buses go. I have let my helpers know who live in the Llandovery area but it could be that it is another dog which is male.

I have just had a call from a guy who saw a dog of Tiggs description chasing rabbits in the field next to the Priory at a village called Llanthony which is almost dirctly north of Abergavenny on the edge of the Black mountains - he said he saw the dog yesterday but didn't get very close although he did note that it had a collar on - when asked if he thought it had a grey face he didn't seem to think so although he couldn't be certain. This is a long shot as it is an aweful long way from the last sighting which was in the right area but it is in the right direction for home so can't be ruled out. Is there anyone who is local to that area who could possibly have a look around - it may well be a locals dog but I can't get there until weekend at earliest and it is a long way from my helpers in the area.

New posters have been put up and around Upper Chapel but just don't know how long it is taking her to do circuit if that is what she is doing. I just hope and pray all the time that she eventually will let someone close enough to catch her as I think it is going to be very much a chance meeting as she is so ellusive, and of course all the bracken is up now so she has cover where ever she goes and is camaflage colour anyway.

Epynt is a military training ground - mostly for Paratroops and SAS. try military bases. There is one at Brecon which may be able to pass on your message to the right regiments. Much of the area is closed to the public. Try pub in Upper Chapel

Dogs living feral for any length of time usually move round a triangular territory. Just been looking at the map again, and we now have a triangle! Llyswen first, then Erwood, now Upper Chapel. If Tiger makes her way back to Llyswen she will possibly go across a line taking in Llaneglwys. Are all folk in Llaneglwys informed about her?

That is so strange - I had strong feelings about Tiger as we passed a signpost to the Red Kite feeding station on Monday, a wish that I could go and search for her but as we were meeting the family at Usk at 12.30 there was not time to deviate and we came back on the motorway and I would not have known where to start anyway. It does sound more positive and having another pair of eyes watching out for her must make you feel better. If it ever came to needing a group of people to just sit and watch for her in a certain area I could get there in a couple of hours. Keeping my fingers crossed all the time. Hazel

Brilliant news Louise. What an amazing girl she is. I think of her and check here all the time, and so very pleased to see this today. Have you any holiday left to get up there yourself ? A camping holiday would be good, and perhaps you could do that mail out now. ? Is this new place not on the ranges ?

Louise, I am so pleased to hear of another sighting :-)) but not at all surprised because as you know I am quite convinced that Tiger is still out there, quite competently hunting for herself and finding shelter when needed. Upper Chapel is only 5 miles cross-country from Erwood where she was seen before. It's the kind of cross-country which would be a lot easier for 4 legs than 2. It's good to know that someone could get that close to her.

The pipeline people should be well aware by now - they have been visited a number of times by different people and posters large and small handed out - one very helpful foreman even said he would copy a load more for me and hand them out - trouble is they have different people coming and going all the time as they move one but hopefully we have covered what we can. Thanks for the thought anyway.

Louise, having travelled the A40 on Monday to take my son' dogs back to him it just struck me - I wonder whether you could make contact with the people who are working on the gas pipeline which is going through the Brecon Beacons. They are currently crossing the A40 near Sennybridge but don't know how many other sites they have running. Having had them near us in Pembrokeshire they tend to work on lots of different sites at the same time so may have works going on further through the beacons as well. They would be good people to keep an eye out for Tiger. I dont know how many companies are involved but it is a very large project so there will be people working in the area for a long time. I could try to find out how to contact them if you thought it was a good idea or there may be information on the internet. I do hope the recent sighting turns out to be Tiger and that someone can persuade her to come to them soon. I so wish I was nearer and could offer help. I was thinking about her as we drove on Monday

Thanks - My new little lurcher Lily has really lifted my spirits, and guess what - I had a call from a man on Saturday to say that he had seen Tiger - thats the first sighting in absolute ages. He said that he got within a few feet of her and she still had her collar on - I asked if she was ok and he said she seemed fine (assuming it is her of course). He saw her at the end of last week on the B road between Brecon and Builth Wells (what they call the Eppynt) near the Red Kite area - I think this is near a village called Upper Chapel. He couldn't catch her but knew that he had seen a poster - he said he now has my number on his phone so when if he sees her again he will call straight away - he also said he would keep some food in his car to try and entice her over. A couple of the local helpers went up to the area but as it was already 24 hours out of date there was no sign of her. I was really coming to the conclusion that something had happened to her as there had been no sightings but now I feel much more hopeful. If only she would just let someone catch her!

Louise still thinking of you and Tiger(checking your sight). I think it's great and brave that you've taken a dog that needs all your love you've got to give, someone suggested it to me but I'm not as brave as you. Buffysmum gave a good suggestion over the welsh game fair and if you could make it, with flyers and posters the more eyes the better looking for Tiger. We did that at a car boot and it was soothing to be active. I'll be doing an all night vigil on sat and will be thinking of you and Tiger.Love Michelle.XXX

I am so sorry that Tiggs is still not home with you. Its the Welsh Game Fair this weekend. Loads of doggy people and loads of dogs - plenty of lurchers there. Might be worth paying a visit, can't make it myself so if you go, good luck. Stay safe Tiggs. xx

Louise, I am delighted to hear that you are taking on another lurcher in need, and maybe it will make the search for Tiger easier when you have the love and support of another hound. Hopefully you will end up with both of them - it wouldn't be the first time that has happened :-)

Thanks for your kind words Michelle and I hope so much that your dog is found too. I'm sure you feel like I do whenever you are sat looking at an empty bed. It took me a long time to decide but I am going to take on another little lurcher who is in need of a home. I had a dream about three weeks ago that I had another lurcher and Tiggs came to me, and then this little dog was shown to me by someone who has helped me so much in finding Tiger and she was so like the dog in my dream that I couldn't not take her, trouble is I was initially asked to foster her but when I get attached I will not be able to give her up. She will never replace Tiggs and I can only hope and pray that she is found, but I think it will make the emptiness easier.

Louise please don't give up hope. My dog Kobe has been missing since 14/04/07 so I know how you feel. We had sightings on the railway but you can't access it so I know how frustrated you are feeling. I don't know what to say over the physic except to bear it in mind but don't take it as gospel. If they can help than great but keep positive and talking to her as I know they feel our vibes. Send her your love and tell her your waiting for her. Keep the posters going and also hound the vets every few weeks.Love to you and Tiger get home soon.Michelle.XXX

Personally I don't feel that she would have stayed on the firing range because of the constant firing at times. She isn't usually frightened of gun shots or fireworks etc but just in the last few months prior to her going missing she would get up and run out of the room if the open fire popped or banged. Whether this is something to do with her hearing starting to go and therefore it sounds different, I don't know. Its now over 2 months since she went and have heard nothing for such a long time.

still thinking of you and hoping. Stay strong. Is there a dog section at the barracks? Dog lovers who have access to the area may be more amenable to doing more than a cursory glance. have to say if Tiger is that nervy the likelihood of her remaining on a live firing range is slim? Most dogs would bolt miles to get away surely?

The riddle has been solved - thank you - although I don't know if it will do any good - apparently the Gurkhas at Brecon Barracks have crossed swords as their emblem and there is a place called Dering Lines there too and a separate firing range - they already have a poster there and i have rung to ask them to check bunkers but nothing back!

Phsycics have been known to be right and they've been known to be wrong, so whilst you have to "consider" the info you've been given you certainly cannot take it as fact (I lost all faith in phsycics when they told a friend of mine she was going to get pregnant and miscarry - nice!). But you have to stay strong - I am sure Tiger would eat anything in sight if she was hungry, like most dogs will. It sounds like Tiger is a fighter. ANd, even if (and a big IF) the worst has happened, you still need ot keep looking so you can bring her home and lay her to rest. Stay strong - thinking of you and Tiger. Hoping Tiger is safe and well, and hoping she shows herself soon. xxxxx

Thank you all for your kind words - I just wish they would bring her back. I was called this morning from the phsycic who said that Tiggs had passed away which was very upsetting, however she then said that Tiggs wouldn't eat sheep carcases because she thought they were revolting - this made me think - the Tiggs I know and love will eat virtually anything even when she is having two good meals a day and lots of titbits so I'm sure she wouldn't turn her nose up at a dead sheep if she was starving - this made me feel more hopeful.

Update - I have been in touch with a phsycic from Devon who apparently has found dogs before. She was (in my opinion) extremely good and informed me that Tiger was in some sort of bunker or shelter in the area of Alltmawr just above Erwood. She said she was very weak as she had not eaten for some time and felt we needed to move quickley to help her. A number of my faithfull helpers spent Sunday and Monday for endless hours trying to find her and then I was there on Tuesday all day but to no avail - we cannot find this shelter. I spoke to the phsycic again and she said she had had a message which she did not understand but she must tell me it - it went like this "Where swords are drawn and lines are crossed, the firing range you will find dog lost". Having thought long and hard about this we diverted to an area where there is a village called Battle south of the firing ranges but nothing. If Tiger is up on the firing ranges in a bunker then there is no hope as the army won't allow you on as they are live firing. I have asked them to look in all bunkers and they said they would check any they pass. The thing that puzzles me with this is that if she was on the ranges why would she not have eaten as there are loads of carcasses around. I came away again feeling completely demoralised and if what the phsycic says is true it may have been our last chance of finding her. I woke up this morning feeling very down and almost physically ill - my interpretation is that perhaps it is now too late and with the very cold night perhaps she has now died starving and alone in a cold bunker.

I have put a letter in the Brecon&Radnor paper again this week to ask people to check their unused barns/shed etc - I've had two calls from very nice old gentlemen but only as a bit of info about the are not that they had seen her. One person said he thought he had seen a dog like her in Brecon about a week ago but from the sound of it this dog was smaller and more like a whippet.

I had a call at the weekend from what sounded like a teenager who said they had seen a dog like Tiger in outside the Trawler shop in Llandovery about 4 hours previous but although I think they were genuine, I have my doubts that it was her. I alerted Benflash but as usual nothing seen since. I am really starting to loose hope now, it has just been so long since hearing anything positive.

I have just had a call from the dog warden at Abertillary (south west of Abergavenny) to say they have had a dog in the park there for two days which looks like Tiger, has the right collar on (although no tags) and has floppy ears - once again my hopes raised and I was about to jump in the car when he just happened to mention that there was football on there tonight and they were getting anoyed with it as it chases the ball - straight away I said its not Tiggs - she has never chased a ball or played with any toys since I've had her she shows no interest in them at all so I know its not her!

I had a call about 11.15 Tuesday morning from a lady driving through Llyswen who had possibly seen Tiger about 10 minutes previous crossing the road just off the roundabout heading for Bronllys so very close to Llyswen which is in the same valley as Erwood and the previous sightings some 3 weeks ago. Alot of the footpaths are closed in the are because of the pipeworks going on (although I did walk a load of them) but they are good routes to go on unseen and there are loads of rabbit warrens down them. Benflash found a small nest in the woods above where she was seen so we left some food and a blanket there - there was no sign within the next 24 hours so we don't know if it is her using it or something else. Nothing since then tho. We gave the pipe workers a load of posters and they said they would copy more as they have a big depot just down from where she was seen (alot of the workers are foreign tho).

cant offer any practical help as am too far away, but stay positive, we are all thinking of you. Easy for me to say with my lot safe in their beds, but there is a plague of suicidal bunnies at present, and the weather is warm, she probably still thinks she's on holiday. Alternatively if she is scared she is probably hiding. Would it be possible for friends who own dogs she knows and likes to come to the area to look? Also are there any unnoficial rescues or eccentric rescuers in the area? With her being older someone may have assumed she is an ex rabbiter too old to work and now dumped, and she could be snoring her head off in a group of old but happy cast offs as we speak! Not everyone reports dogs, especially apparently "dumped" ones, and most unofficial rescues are out in the sticks. Do you want me to cross post on the agility and canine forums? I'm sure they won't mind, and it might throw up an unofficial rescue that hasnt been covered. Hope the sick caller never has to go through what you are going through, tho what comes around goes around................

Louise, if you get any more such calls, please let me have the number rather than ringing it yourself. I would always be willing to call the culprit and point out the error of their ways. Re Hereford & Worcester rescue, the co-ordinator is a DL helper and always checks this site so if Tiger fetches up there she will be straight home. Just a thought, I am sure someone will have done it but can I ask if posters are up at the big layby just west of Llanspyddid where the tea van is? I intend to give you a call later today to share a few thoughts if that is OK. It is possible I might be able to get over there next week and help out. Anyway, the weather has been mild, there are streams, there are bunnies, there is no reason why she would not be fending for herself successfully even though she is a mature lady. The fact that she has not been seen for a while is frustrating, but with leaves now on the trees and all the plants growing, a brindle lurcher could easily go unnoticed.

Quick update. The dog in Pontardawe is a dead end. The owner has been found for it so that puts closure on that one. However, I had a call today from a guy in Brecon who claims to have had hold of a dog of Tigers description but he wouldn't stay with her until I managed to get someone out there, he tied her to the railings next to the information centre and went. He has assured me that it wasn't a hoax. By the time someone got there (which was within 30 minutes) the dog had gone, so whether she got away or whether someone saw them drive off and picked her up we don't know. Benflash (I think thats your name!!) and co spent hours searching the area but found nothing. This is the first sighting for over two weeks but is back in the right area so keep fingures crossed it was her. I'm getting to the stage now where I prepare myself for the worst before I get the news.

Travelled the A40 yesterday, and spent a lot of time in Hereford yesterday, spoke to several people with lurchers, and gave them posters, put poster up in spar sennybridge, and postered many of the villages on villlage notice boards, also gave poster to the Volunteer pub, in bodenham.

That has been done well and truly and I am in the process of mailshotting the whole area with flyers so that every house gets a poster as there are some very remote places which may have people who only shop once a fortnight so may not realise she is a missing dog. I would really like to say such a big thank you to Katrina and Fiona and also Angela from Greyhound Rescue West of England who have worked tirelessly putting out posters and knocking on doors, and also everyone else who has helped - it really spurs you on when someone who hasn't even met my little girl is desperately trying to find her.

So sorry you had a wasted day Louise. Have been thinking of you all day. Trouble is, you dare not go because one of these dogs will be her. If you think she's been taken in, which she probably has by now, why not get a poster to every post office and every little shop that sells milk bread and papers around Erwood and surounding villages. Cant get E mail adresses for any of those so you would have to do them by post or visit.

I think we can rule out the Hereford sighting as the dog has been seen to wear a collar with a chain on it. If Tiger still has hers on it is a wide greyhound collar. Spent all day in Tesco car park today waiting for a dog to appear at Pontardawe but nothing appeared - all I wanted was a sighting - typical - it has been appearing on quite a few occasions too. No other sightings have been informed so far.

Have just had a call to say a lurcher looking like Tiggs has been seen in the area of Cockshoot on the Putley Common to Woolhope Road near a disused quarry, Hereford. It has been there a number of days but they can't catch it. Please could anyone in the area have a look - I have my doubts it is her but you never know.

I have this morning spoken to a lovely lady who has the gift. She is certain that someone has Tiger in an area where there is a valley with hills/mountains on either side (this of course could be anywhere in Wales). She feels that it is an elderly couple with another dog who have her and she is being looked after properly. This area could well be the Erwood area and could be why she has not been seen for 12 days. She feels that they are not keeping her for any reason other than they have just taken her in. They probably don't know that she is missing. I asked if the area was residential or secluded and all that she could tell me was rural. My gut feeling is that Tiger is in the Erwood area and that the people who have her possibly live in a little secluded house up a little lane where no-one would see them walking her. I am going to try and get phone numbers and addresses of all residents in the Erwood area (as I am now back in Wiltshire and can't knock on doors). If there is anyone in the vacinity who could knock on doors of remote houses I would be most grateful of the help.

You will need to check with Louise or benflash then. I do know there are greyhound rescue centres and shelters in both areas mentioned and perhaps that is the route Louise is going down. If Tiger has been picked up and passed to Greyhound rescue she could have been moved down country. I will PM you Louise contact. Gotta go to work now. x

Sorry I haven't responded but I have been in Wales since Tuesday - only just got back home feeling very low. The paper came out yesterday and I only had two responses and they were sighting for over 12 days ago. I think the paper mountain in Wales has gone mad - I have the most famous dog in the countryside. Just about everywhere I go to put up a poster they already have one, it is fantastic how everyone is helping so much. I am trying to get an article for Tiggs in next weeks paper and also the Hereford Times as she may have moved over that way. I have tried a few 'mediums' too and they are all very positive and are sure she is still surviving and will be found, trouble is every day I come away I feel I have let her down again. There is the slight possibility that she may have been taken down to the Narbeth area (it is only a possibility) so if anyone is down that way please look out for her, posters are being put out in that area and the Vets have been notified. Thank you so much for everything you are doing everyone.

I did send posters to the two filling stations at Sennybridge last week and therefore the cafe, perhaps someone could check whether they have displayed them. One other place I thought of is the lay-by at Bwlch where there are toilets and a mobile cafe. Its the other side of Brecon on the A40 but very well used by people in and out of the area. I am too far away to do this myself. There are also one or two other mobile cafes on the A40 somewhere between Llandovery and Brecon (cannot remember exactly where) think one busy one is between Llandovery and Sennybridge?

Hi Benflash, it was nice to speak to you today, is there any chance of getting some posters up on the main A40, its possible that someone has picked tiger up whilst on route to somewhere out of the area, it could be a route they use regularly, so some posters on the main road would be a great help. Im going over to Crickhowel the weekend, so i will call in to the pipe protesters again, and have a good nose around. Will speak to louise today, come home soon Tiger xxxxxxx

Have had a reply from the British Horse Society Cymru who have forwaded Tiger's poster and info to all their contacts in the locality, including The Forestry Commission personnel who actually work in the forest areas around there, so they may spot her. The Wales Trecking and Riding Association replied saying they have forwarded info and poster to all their contacts within the area who may be able to assist. And The Greyhound Rescue Wales who I wrote to this morning have replied saying the info and poster is being circulated to all their members all over Wales so most areas will be covered. They asked if we knew there are two Dogs Trust Kennels at Newport and Bridgend, also the RSPCA Animal shelter in Cardiff and swansea. there are also numerous very small animal rescue groups which they are trying to get a list of, but arn't very hopefull on that. You probably coluld Google some of those up Louise, as I have no idea now who you have contacted. Louise please PM me your Email address as have been given a couple of private numbers I dont want to put on here. Hope this helps. x want to put on here that you can contact for help.

benflash- thats brilliant. It would be really good if we could get that site checked out in case she's latched on there, plus they can keep their eyes open. Its good that you are postering post offices, shops, and takeaways as we cant get Email addresses for them, and thats where people go. You are doing a fantastic job. Hope its you who finds her! x

Hi, I know the ones you are talking about. They are pipe line protesters. I am driving past there tonight, If I am feeling brave I will call in. Have now also posted Trawlerman fish and chip shop Llandovery, post office boughrood,Llangorse lake caravan park, Brecon mountain rescue team, some friends also, who then have circulated the poster to their friends. One is a Gwent police man, one lives in Ross on Wye and one in Cirencester. You never know she may pass through one of these areas if she is on the way home. When I have been travelling round putting the posters up and talking to people, it is quite amazing that so many people do care and want her to get back home soon.

Everyone is working really well on here. We must get a lucky break soon. At least tthe weather is very mild and there are water holes in that area. even though Tiger is a bit elderly , being a woman, I'm sure she will find ways of getting food. We must just keep at it untill we get a sifghting. I have been amazed at the kindly response to postering, and am sure there must be thousands of people aware now. She may even have been taken in by that settlement that you mentioned, BC. Have just Emailed posters with a letter to 1st montgomery Guides, Cwm Fforest Riding Centre, Scouts Group, Talgarth Army Cadet Force, Talgarth Youth Club, Brecon Library, Builth Wells Library, Crickhowell Library, Hay on Wye Library, LLandrindod Wells Library, LLandrindod High School, Christ College Brecon, Rhydybont Camp Site Talgarth, Riverside International Campsite, and Joes lodge Hostel Talgarth. Hope this helps. x

Been all along the A40 today, back and forth, no sign of Tiger. There is a place about 5 miles from Sennybridge, going towards Brecon, its on the right hand side, it has lots of sheets hung up in the trees with writing on it, looks like some kind of hippie camp, i was going to call in on the way back home, it was getting dark, and i was on my own so thought id better give it a miss, wasnt sure what i might find there, dose anyone know this place, you cant miss it?????????

I have advertised Tiger being lost in the local paper which comes out on Thursday I think and hopefully has a wide coverage. I am also going to try and get hold of the local radio stations. An email has gone out to all the local RSPCA inspectors for wales and Hereford with her poster and I have been in touch with Dog wardens in Hereford and Gwent. Please could someone just say they had seen her so I know she is ok - my hopes are fading the longer it goes on. I took a friend and her dog up but feel so useless as she could be 30 miles away by now.

We need to spread the poster campaign towards Hay on Wye and Bronllys Talgarth and Abergavenny areas. I have already sent a poster out to a farmers feed merchant and a fuel station in Three cocks a couple of days ago. Tonight I have also rang a farmer I know at Llangorse to ask him to keep his eyes peeled and to ask his neighbours. She may still be in the Erwood area , but may well have moved on again. Who knows, if only We had a cristal ball! I will try and get out in that direction with posters tomorrow and ask as many people as I can. But it is getting out of my area now . Come on Tiger, show yourself!!

Had message today to say that Tiger was seen last weekend off the ranges in the Erwood area - this could mean that she is travelling east towards Hay on Wye or south east towards Talgarth and Abergavenny - aparently the people got within 10foot of her but couldn't catch her which is going to be the big problem as she is nervous. Food always helps of course but she may well only come to me which doesn't help the situation. I'm glad she is off the ranges tho as she is more likely to be seen and hopefully less likely to be shot as it is lambing time.

I had a message last night that a dog similar to Tiger was seen out riding with a man on a horse during the week on the Eppynt Way. Tiger does ride out with me but I don't know that she would with anyone else or a strange horse unless on a lead - unless she has just latched on to him and followed him home. It is a possibility but I have my doubts that is was her.

The message I had on Sunday was from a farmer that had spoken to another farmer who had seen a dog of her description heading in the direction of Erwood but still on the army range. The area that she disappeared from was very near to the northern part of the road which leads from Tirabad to Llywell and she was seen near there on the previous Monday and Thursday, so the last sighting was some 10 to 12 miles away with only open moor land and ranges in between. There was alot of shooting on the range on Saturday and I wander if it scared her into running further away and she is trying to find her way back. I left beds and coats and food all week in the area she was seen but there was no evidence that she was in the area still. It is such a vast area out there and the only people really allowed on the range are the army and local farmers as it is MOD land (we were at a rally when she ran off so the range was open then). I am just so grateful to you all for the work you are putting in to looking for her. Thank you so much.

Louise, do not allow yourself to get too despondent please, remember there are lots of us doing all we can to get her home for you- we are sending posters out to as many places as we can find addresses for so there will be many people aware and looking out. I am sending a fax to sennybridge Primary school to ask for help from the children to tell all their friends and posters to the two filling stations in sennybridge. Trying to locate Erwood on the map to get more posters near there and will get the word out to walkers in the area asap and horse riders. Keep you chin up. Perhaps you can pinpoint Erwood for me?

Hi - I'm Tiger's owner - I would love a media hit - Have sent some pictures in but not sure if they have got through yet as I can't see them on the site. Tiger is the most wonderful dog you could imagine, she is very quite and extremely loyal to me. She wouldn't hurt a fly but is timid of strangers. Her distinguishing features are her ears - everyone comments on the way both flop to one side rather than the front. She has a fatty lump on the base of her rib cage and one claw missing from her front paw. She is now very grey in the face. Her eyesight is going and she has catteracts on both eyes although she can still see, and her hearing is starting to go. Apart from that!! she is very fit and active for an old girl but is desparately missed and needs to come home to her mum. The locals have been extremely helpful in spreading the word about her and all unsundry have been contacted including the army and wardens, rspca, hunts, farmers, pub landlords, rescue centres. Posters have been put up on the ranges and around the Erwood area where she was possibly last spotted on Sunday.
